Are the voters (media guys) really that lame they're still holding onto some grudge about how Parcells treated them so long ago?

Guy is DEFINITELY A FIRST BALLOT HOF and he DOESN'T get in?

WTF? Yeah, with everything he's done, INCLUDING two of his students PLAYING IN THE ****ING SB tmrw, I am baffled and pissed off.

Didn't realiZe or don't recall the story on how all his friends and gf were ice skating in 1948 while he said in car and listened to the whole giants colts championship game and was so so upset when they lost in 0T.

Little did he know that he would bring the very first SB to NY 38 years later!!!

And a 2nd one 4 years after that for his beloved team as its HC

it really is. its sickening bc you know the sports writers that people like a parcells pissed off held a grudge and couldnt wait to dog him when it came time to vote him in the HOF. happens in baseball too.

they should absolutely find a no measure to vote people in, relying on sports writers and media jerkoffs is way to skewed and personal and not focused on the merit of actual skill and wins.

and miked, i knew u'd be up too tonight. glad i got some one to shoot the **** with. i may try passing out in a few but i doubt i'll be able to.

It is because of his performance with the Dolphins as well as the way he has a bad habbit of leaving teams and burning that bridge.

I know, people will respond " He wasnt a coach in Miami and he was up as a coach only." But, the people in Miami and south Florida feel differently. Even the players in Miami said the Parcells was in charge both on and off the field. I know that organization felt spurned by Parcells and they should have. He left them in a very bad situation. When you think about it, he departed several organizations in anger or dispute.

My bet is some of them decided to hold it against him.

If it is based on the media/reporters because of hurt feelings then those SOBS shouldn't have the privilege on voting people into the HOF.

Just Childish and immature tbh.

I think people are reaching a bit with the reasoning behind it. One reason that I heard on the radio that does make some sense is that there seems to be a feeling that he may not be completely done yet. That a team may offer him a FO position in some capacity before it's all said and done.

I don't think his performance has anything to do with not getting in this year.

I think his habit of leaving teams swinging in the breeze when things donít go his way is what will keep him out of the Hall of Fame .

I agree. The media loved the way Parcells behaved. He was entertaining, even when insulting them, and they eat that up.

If it is based on the media/reporters because of hurt feelings then those SOBS shouldn't have the privilege on voting people into the HOF.

Just Childish and immature tbh.

While true. Its not just about childish vendettas. Many members of the media, particularly here in Florida and throughout the south have complained that he used a loophole to even get on the ballot. I love me some Parcells, and think he deserves to get in without a doubt, and he will get in.

BUT, they do have a point.

As we all know there is a 5 year waiting period before being put on the ballot. He is trying to get in as a coach claiming that his last coaching job was with the Cowboys in 2006-2007. However, everyone acknowledges that he had complete control in Miami, including some playcalling and all player personel decisions from the roster spots down to the active players for games. In essence, many members of the media felt he was the coach in sheeps clothing, which he was and therefor shouldnt have even been on the ballot yet. I happen to agree. I think had he not tried to get around the rules, he would have been a 1st ballot entry, easily.

He joined a 1-15 Dolphin team and in one year, had them 11-5 and in the playoffs. He provided a blueprint for success in Miami. Worst team in the league to contenders in one year. Wtf else do Dolphin fans want.</P>

He is getting the Ted Williams - Jim Rice treatment. Parcells was a great coach but a jerk alot of the time. Payback is a bit/ch. I am fairly certain he will be voted in next time.

If there is a football Hall of Fame without Parcells in it, then it is simply not a Hall of Fame. In my opinion he is the best overall football mind ever, even though he worked for 3 of the 4 holiest of hated teams. Every team he went to was flat out awful and he turned every one of them around. Even today's game stands as a testament to Parcell's greatness.

</p>

Chad Henne and Pat White were slated to share time as the starting QB going into the 2008 season. By pure luck the Jets traded for favre and released Pennington for the Fins to sign the day before the season started. That wasthe main reason why that team excelled that year and it wasnt Parcells doing , it was pure luck.
</p>

</p>

Everything Parcells did to that franchise after 2008 was bad. He failed to address the QB problem. In 2010 he reportedly spent less than 1 week in the facility the entire year. The guy he brought in to be the Gm has not done very well. The guy he left as a head coach was awefull. He failed to address several key positions Finally, in 2011 Parcells severed ties with the Fins 1 month prior to the draft, which had people in the organization fuming.
</p>

</p>

</p>

I am not saying he was right or wrong, but Parcells left the Cowboys amid a dispute with Jerry Jones..</p>

He jilted the Tampa Bay Buccaneers by agreeing tin principle to be the coach, then at the last moment walking away. That organization was not happy.
</p>

He left the Patriots amid a very public dispute with Robert Craft.</p>

People forget that Parcells tried to leave the Giants after the 1986 Superbowl because the Falcons offered him a coach/GM job. Paul Tagliabue, the then commmisoner had to step refuse the deal because Parcells was already under contract with the Giants. It was also widly reported(but never proven) that Parcells contacted the Giants wanting the GM job but was refused in favor of Reese. Bill claims this was untrue.
</p>

</p>

So when you look at his career, as great as it was, he scorched earth everywhere he went. teams, fans and the media all had it in for him.
</p>

</p>

On top of the general consensus that he WAS the coach of the fins up until at least 2010, many down here and likely around the league, felt he should not get in YET( he will get in though.)
</p>

I am not saying I agree with the choice, but I do understand them. I do think the people who decide who is eligible and who is not made a mistake. BP should have been on the Ballot in 2015, and if he were, I think he would have been 1st Ballot.
